Seventy pieces of 'sewage related debris'
- that is to say, sanitary towels....

These items, when flushed down the loo, can get pass
through our sewage treatment works after heavy rain, being discharged
out to sea through CSOs (combined sewage overflows). And yet...there
are to my knowledge no CSOs near Thorpeness and, at the time of this
walk, we had been suffering a drought here for weeks!
Moreover, I find this debris in varying quanitities every time
I visit any of
my local beaches, at all times of year. It seems the North Sea
is so awash with the stuff, it just comes in on every tide...

I will be lobbying about this but in the meantime there is something
we can all do to reduce this problem:
PLEASE NEVER EVER FLUSH ANY KIND
OF PLASTICS AND SANITARY WASTE DOWN THE LOO!!!!
